Was it autism?

>When I invited Jobs to take some time away from NeXT to speak to a group of students, he sat in the lotus position in front of my fireplace and wowed us for three hours, as if leading a séance. But then I asked him if he would sign my Apple Extended Keyboard. He burst out: “This keyboard represents everything about Apple that I hate. It's a battleship. Why does it have all these keys? Do you use this F1 key? No.” And with his car keys he pried it right off. “How about this F2 key?” Off they all went. “I'm changing the world, one keyboard at a time,” he concluded in a calmer voice.g

Jobs was a massive cuck and I'm glad he's dead, but he really knew UI design. Fuck function keys desu, they're just a copout. If you're gonna include buttons, each button MUST have a single, immediately obvious purpose that extends to all contexts.

Even the Game Boy had too many buttons, though I'd be satisfied if they were colored green and red a la GameCube controller

*if the A and B buttons were colored

Yeah it was fucking autism, but that motherfucker was a genius.


>too many buttons
but how? it only had two

>Why does it have all these keys? Do you use this F1 key? No.” And with his car keys he pried it right off. “How about this F2 key?” Off they all went. “I'm changing the world, one keyboard at a time,”

THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN

Apple.

By autists, for autists.

>by homos for homos

>but how? it only had two
An Apple mouse gets by with one, at least the proper Jobs-approved kind of mouse from before he was forced to bow to the demands of PC cucks and add a right button.

>3 hours near a fireplace
>hippie circle

Sounds like acid

tbqh senpai i can't remember the last time i unironically used a function key

>Do you use F keys? No.

t. has never played a RPG or simulation

alt+F4
F5 to refresh
F6 to quickly type in the address bar
shift-F10 if you have a laptop with a shitty keyboard that doesn't include a context menu key

So apparently there are extroverted variants of autism. The rarest kind of autism that may make you an asshole but a winner in business.

WHO WANTS SOME VOLCANO CAKE?

>not an Apple shaped cake
what was steve thinking about

>Word on the street
>The cancer story was a cover
>AIDS

But seriously, he was a master of persuasion.
Siri was shit
Nobody used it
But iZombies thought they had to have it
I still hear a few of them talk to siri sometimes
I cringe when I hear it over the cubes

>F1-Back
>F2-Forward
>F3-Find in page
>F4-For alt+f4 close
>F5-Refresh
>the rest - brightness up/down, volume up/down
Fucking idiot hack.

Do you use it? No. I decided that for you. You don't get to use the function keys.

Where's that meme where Steve said "Flash is dead" and then adobe some years later said "Steve Jobs is dead". Puts things in perspective

>>Gameboy had too many buttons
How would you run and jump in Super Mario Bros. How would you back out of a menu in a game, how would some play Zelda with one item slot

>How would you run and jump in Super Mario Bros.
Run could happen automatically after walking for a time.
>How would you back out of a menu in a game
Go down to EXIT at the bottom.
>how would some play Zelda with one item slot
Hold select and press A for the second item slot. It's kind of like ctrl-click to right click.

I really like these pictures

>cmd-w
>cmd-r
>cmd-u
this doesn't exist in macOS

Function keys are redundant. And for the exact reason why Jobs would go ballistic if he saw the Touchbar.

Glad to hear it

he wasn't at apple, dumb-ass!

>draw a hand
>call it a foot

Correct

This was the original Macintosh keyboard, and the correct one designed by Steve Jobs.

There are no F keys, because F1 doesn't mean help, he envisioned people using on-screen menus, F5 doesn't mean "run" or "refresh", but cmd+R can hint that.

Notice it doesn't have stupid arrow keys, you have a fucking mouse, so you don't need arrow keys, idiot!

...

G needs to learn exactly what autism is and is not

He was your typical banker: emotionally detached, probably borderline or sociopathic. Spoiled kid with no capability for empathy. He is way overrated and it's funny how society puts people like this on pedestal. They worship sociopaths.

That's a weird looking foot but I appreciate it.

I can understand most people wouldn't but they're nice to have for macros.

And yet I feel that 7 aren't enough, could have much higher productivity with just one more... Must suck to be a normie and have no idea what each button does...

hott

You need pic related.

Come on, Jobs... what's all the crap to the right of the enter key? Apart from the arrows all that junk can go.

is more like it
